Memories & Candles

I did not know SPC Whipple personally, but as a former Soldier in a "sister unit" to the 7th Eng BN, I mourn your loss, and the loss to the 10th Sustainment Brigade Family. Your son/brother was a dedicated Soldier who bravely chose to sacrifice his freedom to fight for everyone else's. His memory and selfless service will not be forgotten.

I pray that you can find solace in the memories you have of him.

To the Family of Spc Whipple,

I did not know SPC Whipple personally, but as a former Soldier in a "sister unit" to the 7th Eng BN, I mourn your loss, and the loss to the 10th Sustainment Brigade Family. Your son/brother was a dedicated Soldier who bravely chose to sacrifice his freedom to fight for everyone else's. His memory and selfless service will not be forgotten.

I pray that you can find solace in the memories you have of him. I know his fellow Soldiers and leadership are very proud of your dedicated Soldier. When deployed myself, I admired and was in awe of the young, brave Soldiers who "left the wire" each day without hesitation. Their confidence and courage is humbling.

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13
